When I first viewed Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban (on DVD) the other day, I was appalled at the blatant deficit of consequential information that provided vital understanding to an otherwise a horrendously confusing storyline. For example: Just what is the Marauders Map… where did it come from, who made it, and just who are Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs? Why is Harry’s Patronus a stag? Why is there a shrunken head on the knight bus? And why don’t Stan and Ernie find out who there infamous passenger was? ??? The discrepancies in this movie go on and on, leaving most “uneducated” Harry Potter fans dazed and bewildered. It is furthermore an insult to all the hard work JK Rowling spent weaving that beautifully intricate storyline much of us have come to know and love. A final note to the film writers to the Harry Potter series… For God’s sake, have some compassion for beautiful, decent literature, and stay away from the Goblet of Fire.
